AGM 2019
It’s a bit early for us to have an agenda for the meeting, but one thing that we will be
dealing with is membership of the committee.
Currently the committee consists:
Chairman
Secretary
Treasurer
Membership
Newsletter
General
Co-opted
Sharon Wolf
Rowena Howell
Anne Rogers
Julie Moody
Kim Moody
Diane Dening (not standing for re-election)
Clare Holmes
This year Diane will be stepping down as she wants to focus on her family, and we co-
opted Clare to pick up Diane’s place.
So … at the next AGM we need to consider:
a) whether to formally vote to make Clare a general member, as replacement for Diane
b) any new nominations for existing committee posts
c) any nominations for additional General Committee roles to assist with the running of
BADFA
For a), Clare Holmes is a longstanding member of BADFA, she is a highly respected art
teacher, and runs her own studio in Crawley, West Sussex. The existing committee
approved her being co-opted and are happy to recommend to the members that she is
elected as a General committee member.
For b), we will be asking for nominations for the other roles. So if you, or another member,
would like to have a go at working on the committee, this would be the time to put names
forward. Nomination forms are available in the link, below.
If there are no new nominations and the existing role holder is happy to remain - and there
are no objections - the role holder will remain, unopposed, otherwise there will be an
election at the AGM to decide the new role holder.
If you are interested in a particular role but you are unsure about what it entails, please ask
for more information - email [email protected] .
For c), we would like to recruit more general members to the committee to assist with
ideas, decisions, and organising, so, as before, this is the time to step up to the mark. It
would be an ideal start to working with the committee, without the pressure of formal tasks
of the named roles.
Also, at the AGM we’ll be announcing our ‘big brush’ teacher for 2020, so if you’re
not there you’ll have to wait until the next newsletter to get the details.
Here is a link to the NOMINATION FORM if you wish to nominate yourself or another
member for a position on the committee.
Make sure the secretary receives the completed form by Friday 3 May 2019
